    Back to Church

    We see many commercials for back to school sales. September is the month for back to school.There is no excuse for students not to go back to school. Likewise, I thought about Back to ChurchSunday in September. Like the school calendar, I wish I could have a date that everyone should beback to church. This is the time to come back to church after summer vacation or after a long spiri-tual vacation.

    Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as ell. (Matt.6:33) If we humbly seek Gods kingdom first, God will bring revival to our land, our people and our

    church, As a matter of fact, people seek first their own kingdom and their own righteousness. As aresult, nothing will be given to them. We all live with Gods resources such as time, materials andopportunities. God will give his resources more abundantly upon those who seek His priorities.

    Ezekiel was a man of God confronted with a congregation of Gods people who were discouraged,displaced and spiritually dead. The circumstances were ripe for revival. God took Ezekiel to a moun-tain top and gave him a visual aid of revival. Read Ezekiel 37:114! Revival is the process of bring-ing to life that which once was alive, but is now at the point of death. Can these bones live again?Ezekiel obeyed God, preached to those dry bones and then God breathed his spirit back into theirbodies, God revived for Himself a mighty army.

    How Can We Revive?

    1. Recognize the dryness of our bones.

    2. Rekindle the spirit for the lost.

    3. Rejoice in reaching a\out and bringing them to the Lord.

    Robert Robinson, in 1758, wrote the song, O Thou Fount of Every Blessing He later fell away from

    the faith. He met a young lady singing his song. She, noting his sadness, wanted to share the lyrics(continued pg. 2)

    Giving & Gratitude

    God has given us two hands, one to re-

    ceive with, the other to give with. We are

    not cisterns made for hoarding; we are

    channels made for sharing.

    Six kids went tochurch camp thissummer and had agreat time and lookingforward to going backnext year. The top fiveactivities that every-one seemed to enjoywere: archery, spend-

    ing time around the camp fire, making newfriends, swimming and praying.

    Each cabin had about 6-10 kids thatwere shared with their counselors. The favoritefood from camp was Ribs followed by Biscuitsand gravy. We can't forget dessert! The favor-ites were ice cream, cake and banana bread.

    The favorite songs from camp were "Turn

    the world around" and "Farroh O Farroh".

    Summer Concert

    Our summer concert onAug. 15 was like a 'music festi-val' with 15 musicians.

    The program coveredalmost all kinds of music from

    contemporary to classical, and included pianosolos, baritone, soprano, violin, cello, piano trio,barbershop, flute, guitar and gospel songs.

    One of the highlights was Denise Bravell's testi-mony and witnessing music. She was blind frombirth and born to a Jewish family.

    She was touched by Jesus and He gaveher spiritual eyes. There wasnt a dry eye inthe house. She touched everyone there!

    The food and fellowship were wonderful.

    like a heavenly banquet.

    Our next concert will be on Sunday, Dec. 12at 5pm. You may save this special day foryour family and friends. Please feel free toinvite anyone.

    Bell Ringers Have First

    Practice Of The Season!

    Our first bell practicewas a joyful, if hectic time. We

    gratefully appreciate the faithful

    ringers who have returned for an-other year. Lorene, Janice, Sophia,Gay and Nita are such a joy to know and givetheir time and talents.

    The pleasure of the addition of Rose andLorna will add to our range of the number ofbells we can ring. A delight for us all is the pos-sibility of adding children to the choir. This willbe the future of ringing. Alyssa, Savannah,Jessica and Nathan were really enthusias-tic. Christina also rang and has a knowledge ofmusic.

    We look forward to ringing for you in thenear future and can play many more bassbells. It is such a joy and pleasure for me tohave the opportunity to praise God with the mu-sic that we can create. Thank you,
